He's back! Cardinal Dolan lobbies for Catholic school tax credit

http://nypost.com/2014/03/19/cardinal-dolan-lobbies-for-catholic-school-tax-credit/


"New York City Cardinal Timothy Dolan and bishops from around the state made a lobbying push at the Capitol on Tuesday for a long-sought tax credit that could save Catholic schools from shuttering.

Dolan and the bishops met with Gov. Andrew Cuomo and legislative leaders to advocate for a tax credit for charitable donations made for educational purposes. The legislation would eventually be worth up to $300 million a year, with half going to public school programs and half going to scholarships for students who attend private schools."

Commentary: It's good to hear an update about news such as this. If memory serves, this is a follow up from another article that was dated two months ago. And of course, I'll wish them luck on this one.
